that's the big question. jeremy hunt, the culture secretary in the uk had been expected to approve the deal a week ago. now it's viewed that he will be delaying any decision as to whether news corp is allowed to buy bskyb. that is the big thing. will they be allowed to buy it? at the moment the only reason it can be turned down is need yao plurality rules, which is the reason sky news channel has to be hived off. the big concern is what news comes out over the next month or two while the decision is being delayed. the one final thing that could stop news international buying bskyb is whether the regulator, the media regulator in the uk decides if news international is not a fit and proper owner of british media assets. that's very unlikely to happen, but it all depends on what is unearthed of the whole "news of the world." i can't tell you that. >> yeah. sure, we have to wait and watch the way revelations are pouring out, we don't have a clue on what could happen from here on in. coming back to this media plu
